Thanks, I must have ate something that did it . Or maybe its because I miss Disney World so much lol. Anyway, yea we do have drivers ed. I never taken it....all I did was take the pre-test which tells you questions on the computer like how far do you have to be from the car in front of you (hey almost sounds like Tomorrowland Speedway warning lol) what signs mean. Then I took the driving test and passed. I was sooo nervous. But all the practice and hard work my mom did for me.....she let me drive around the Walmarts parking lot a few times every weekend.


Great pics of the room (WLV) Such a nice touch. I love the coloring they did to make it look like your out in the wilderness. Can't wait to see more

Today was our resort hopping day so we unpacked and then got ready to hit the other resorts on the lake - The Contem, Poly & GF - We'd never seen any of these resorts before!!

First though, I wanted to unpack my wedding dress so that I could try and get the creases out of it! Den was no longer allowed in the walk in wardrobe - he knew it was more than his life was worth to dare take a sneak peak in there!!!

We headed out into the heat again and stood on the dock waiting for the boat to take us to the Contem. We were a bit disappointed with this resort for some reason It just didnt feel like disney to us

We had a good nosey around and hit the shops too I think we might try going to the resort again on our next trip and try having a meal there - just incase we were a bit too quick to judge

We grabbed a bottle of coke and then waited for the monorail to take us to the Poly

We arrived at the Poly and it is such a beautiful resort!! I was really looking forward to going there as Stitch is my fave character, so you can imagine how much I spent in the gift shops!!! We were getting hungry so we grabbed a burger from Captain Cook's I think it was called, then we headed back to the monorail to go see The GF - I was really really REALLY excited to go there because we were going to see the Wedding Pavillion too

 

[JoJo1980]

We arrived at the GF and this place is really classy and beautiful! I love the look of the resort from the outside & its grounds, I think it's stunning
We had a look around, hit some shops and then headed outside to try and find the Wedding Pavillion. On the way there Den was trying to take a photo of the two of us, when a passing cast member stopped and offered to take it for is! I thought this was such a cute thing to do, she was driving on a golf cart at the same so it wasnt even as if she was just stood there or walking past or anything!!

We then spotted the pavillion and sat down in this area and just gazed at it as the sun was going down

 

[JoJo1980]

The Wedding Pavillion was adorable, I loved everything about the way it looked and we just sat there so peaceful gazing at it and thinking about our wedding day that would be spent there

We eventually had to head back to our resort so we jumped a cab and then spoilt ourselves with room service for dinner

Next Day .... Animal Kingdom and Dinner during Wishes at Cinderellas Royal Table

Hope you feel better soon or if it turns out that you are missing disney then I think you need to book a trip very soon Congratulations on passing your test I hope I can be lucky too, i'm sure i'll be really nervous aswell!! That was really nice of your mom

The room was lovely, I wish would could afford to live there I just loved it, it felt so homely and comfy!!

Great update! did you rent DVC points? I really want to stay in a 1 bed dvc for our wedding if we can, I love how much space there is.

We have one night booked at WL for our anniversary this Oct - your photos have got me very excited!

Thanks for the neat shots of your villa at Wilderness Lodge - I can never find many photos of the rooms there, and you got some great angles that really show the rooms!

Resort-hopping and shopping followed by room service dinner sounds like my kind of relaxing day - lucky you!

 

[DisBride2009]

Awww the Wedding Pavilion. It was so beautiful! I will never forget the wedding we had there. All I got to say is "IT WAS THE TIME OF MY LIFE!" Great pictures of it . I also love the wedding dress

We booked the villa through the annual pass website and got a great discount We used the annual pass that we got for the wedding The room was huge, lots n lots of space!! The wilderness lodge is beautiful. I've got lots more photos to come yet, mainly from the wedding day - but they will show you the outside of the lodge which is stunning

Hi there! I'm glad you liked the photos. When I was planning our trip I struggled to find many shots of the villas so when we got there I thought these would come in handy for other disers

That day was great - so great that i'm gonna make sure we repeat it in december

DAY 6

Our plans for today were to head to Animal Kingdom and then have dinner at Cinderellas Royal Table during Wishes

We got up and it was such a beautiful morning! We set out to animal kingdom and went on the safari, hit some shops, watched the bird show & Finding Nemo the Musical and a bunch of other stuff. I was getting really REALLY hot at this point and didnt feel very well So we decided to head back to the resort, rest and then get ready for MK that evening. Unfortunately we got stuck behind the crowds and the parade which meant there was no way we could get out of the park in a hurry

 

[JoJo1980]

I still wasnt feeling well but wasnt gonna let that spoil our night!! So we hopped on the boat to MK and headed towards the castle for our dinner, everyone was sat infront of the castle waiting for the fireworks. We had a bit of time to kill first so we went in a couple more shops

Me : Where is everyone?

Den : They're behind you!

When you first enter you are told to sit and wait in the lobby - a cast member gave us a wand and sword which for meant for little one's but we loved them anyway Then Cinderella came out and we had photos taken with her and then headed up to the dining room. The room was beautiful!!! We sat down and got our drinks and then Wishes began - it was lovely to sit there watching & listening Unfortunately my camera was playing up so the photos arent too good

 

[JoJo1980]

The food was lovely and the characters were really cute too

We left the castle and snapped a few photos before heading back to the Wilderness Lodge so that I could decorate our room ready for the wedding tomorrow

 

[JoJo1980]

I decorated the room a little bit and while I was doing so Den stopped me in my tracks and gave me a suprise. He sat me down and put the laptop infront of me & then gave me a dvd - I had no idea what was on it, so I popped it on .... he'd made a video of my parents & our dog and they were telling me how much they loved us and well wishes etc... I was in TEARS! He said he originally was going to show it me on the wedding day but thought it might upset me too much so he'd decided to show it me now. It was beautiful and something I will treasure forever. I pulled myself together, just about, and finished decorating and then headed to bed ready for the day that followed

My something old was my mums horseshoe that her mother gave her on her wedding day, something new was my dress, something borrowed was my dads hanky and the something blue was my garter
